Rafting the French Broad River

It does seem we have it all right here in close proximity to Ponder Cove. How about riding the rapids of the third oldest river in the world, the French Broad, right here in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina . Board your raft near Hot Springs and be prepared for a grand adventure.

The free-flowing river is a delight for rafting, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and simply enjoying the music of the many songbirds that populate the surrounding forests. Since the intensity of the river varies depending on the season, both experienced and beginning water-sportsmen have come to love the river.

Let us hook you up with our favorite guides while you are here to guarantee a safe and fun filled experience on our river.
